Independent Variable This is the factor manipulated by the researcher, and it produces one or more results, known as dependent variables. There are often not more than one or two independent variables tested in an experiment, otherwise it is difficult to determine the influence of each upon the final results.

Cytomegalovirus (CMV) Infection Congenital CMV affects about 0.2-2.5% of babies worldwide. For a woman who has a recurrent CMV infection during pregnancy (meaning this is not a primary infection), the rate of newborn CMV infection is about 1%. Of these, only 1-10% of the babies born with the CMV infection will have symptoms at birth.

Mean platelet volume Mean platelet volume (MPV) is a machine-calculated measurement of the average size of platelets found in blood and is typically included in blood tests as part of the CBC.PV is higher when there is destruction of platelets. This may be seen in inflammatory bowel disease, immune thrombocytopenic purpura (ITP), myeloproliferative diseases and Bernard-Soulier syndrome.

Cytomegalovirus and pregnancy If you have CMV during pregnancy, you have a 1-in-3 chance (33 percent) of passing it to your baby. CMV is the most common virus passed from mothers to babies during pregnancy. About 1 to 4 in 100 women (1 to 4 percent) have CMV during pregnancy. Most babies born with CMV don’t have health problems caused by the virus. But CMV can cause problems for some babies, including microcephaly. This is a birth defect in which a baby’s head is smaller than expected, compared to babies of the same sex and age. You can pass CMV to your baby at any time during pregnancy.

Reference Range Interpretation. Mean corpuscular volume (MCV) is the average volume of red cells. It can be directly measured by automated hematology analyzer, or it can be calculated from hematocrit (Hct) and the red blood cell count (RBC) as follows: MCV in fl = (Hct [in L/L]/RBC [in x10 12 /L]) x 1000.
